>>7176 (OP) First thing's first, what should the dimensions of the card be? I'm thinking of picrel. Some suggestions for the background might also be nice.

>>7177 >background I can dump some backgrounds I've found over the years from my Christmas folder.

>>7184 I think this one's nice. Here. I upscaled it to a higher resolution.

>>7189 I like the comfy, warm, and lively feeling this background gives, we should use this one. I'll keep an eye out for images that both fit the festive theme and represent /vb/'s identity. Also, other Christmas cards have some sort of section that features things that have died that past year, such as people or video games that have flopped. We should include something similar.

>>7191 we could put the flops behind the windows and dead people on photo frames

oh right, we have a christmas thread

love christmas

>>7192 Yeah I like that idea.

Once we have a completed /vb/ Christmas card, it would be neat if we made a short video version that included Christmas music. We could all agree on/vote for a song and choose the best part of it. If we want, we could even make a gif version of the card to go with the music, something simple like snowflakes falling outside the windows in the background, or a fire moving in the fireplace. It wouldn't have to be big, maybe 15-30 seconds depending on the song.

So, Skype is being discontinued this upcoming May, and since it was such a big part of many people's vidya experiences in the past, it would make for a good inclusion for the Christmas card. It isn't a person, but it's "death" is still significant. I put together a simple picture frame, like a memorial to it, that can go on the mantle. I also added a little flower in a vase to further emphasize the point of the photo. If some other anon wants to do it a bit differently or place it somewhere else, go right ahead.

Safe to say that AssCreed Shadows should be included somehow. Maybe a trash can outside with a whole stack of the game inside of it?

>>7935 We'd probably have to get rid of a section of the windows or redraw the windows slightly, otherwise no one's gonna see it. If I wasn't loaded with shit right now I'd contribute more but it'll have to wait.
